Even the Economist can’t stand this economist

Robert Prather at Insults Unpunished found this Economist (UK) article about everybody’s least-favorite columnist, Paul Krugman. Choice quote: “A glance through his past columns reveals a growing tendency to attribute all the world's ills to George Bush.” It’s not a flattering portrait.

But he may have even more readers among his ideological adversaries, particularly on the internet, where deconstructing his latest column is a kind of twice-weekly parlour game—albeit one so contentious it has spawned talk-show chatter and even legal threats.

Right ho, Economist! The game is on tomorrow morn - jolly good fisking!
